Is it dry where you are, Jeanne? It's so humid here my garlic gets  
moldy, and I usually use it pretty quick, my kid eats salsa like  
ketchup. I'd love to be able to keep a braid or two or three handy. My  
family will never be attacked by vampires. And we can only kiss each  
other so it all works out. ; )
